Job description

Clinical Lead ACP - Shakespeare Walk-in Centre

Are you an Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) with a passion for delivering exceptional care and an interest in leadership? Do you thrive in a role where you can influence service quality, mentor clinical teams, and drive continuous improvement? If so, we'd love to hear from you.

With a strong clinical background in urgent and/or emergency care, the Clinical Lead ACP will play a pivotal role in delivering compassionate, high-quality, patient-centred care while helping shape a service built on excellence, safety, and continuous growth. Working alongside a supportive Operations Manager and senior clinical leaders, you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on patients, colleagues, and the future of urgent care.

This is a dynamic role that blends hands‑on clinical practice (75%) with strategic leadership and service development (25%). You will guide and empower clinicians, champion best practice, and ensure the service remains compliant, innovative, and ready to exceed expectations.

What You'll Be Doing

• Deliver outstanding clinical care through direct patient consultations and expert decision‑making.
• Lead by example, supporting and supervising clinicians to uphold high standards and improving confidence across the team.
• Drive service excellence, working closely with the Operations Manager on vision, strategy, quality performance, and compliance.
• Strengthen governance and quality through audits, incident review, risk management and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Develop and inspire the team, supporting recruitment, appraisals, clinical training and staff development.
• Champion CQC readiness, ensuring the service operates safely and effectively in line with regulatory standards.
• Influence wider system transformation, working with commissioners, the ICB and external partners to shape future models of urgent and emergency care.

What we are looking for?

Essential

• NMC registration with no restrictions
• MSc in Advanced Clinical Practice
• Independent/Non‑Medical Prescribing qualification

Desirable

• Level 7 paediatric training
• Minor injury qualification
• Experience in triage/streaming in urgent care
• Teaching, mentoring, or clinical supervision skills
